A Switch for AEM Meth Kit

Ok, so heres the deal...

I have AEM's universal water/meth kit. It kicks on when my car reaches 7psi right now. I'm in the middle of datalogging right now for Vince. But the basic way my car is set up is without comp mode on its tuned to 22psi. With comp mode on its tuned to 25psi with meth. The thing is though, the progressive controller doesn't "know" when I'm in comp mode so soon as it sees 7psi it starts pumping meth. What I'd like to do is install a switch to turn on the controller. Now the controller has a constant 12v wire and a switched 12v wire. Which one would I put the switch on? Thank you for the help in advance guys

lookin for any input you guys have...

obviously I can't just put a switch for the power to the pump, cause the pump is in the trunk with the battery and I want a switch in the car with me

This is why I went with DevilsOwn Progressive kit. You can turn it off when you want as long as you mount the controller inside the vehicle.

All I can think for you to do man would be to take the time to run wires for a switch in car to the power cable. Its the only way to disrupt the power to the pump to make it not work.

Yea. I was thinking about just installing a switch on either the constant 12v wire or the switched 12v wire. I just didn't know which one to do...you know?

Put it on the constant. What kind of switch are you using? just basic toggle?
